GoFundMe steals Trucker Convoy donations — Fight back
The latest:
- GoFundMe has taken control of $9m in Trucker donations. But people can demand a chargeback from their bank to punish GoFundMe and donate to GiveSendGo instead.
- The Truckers are not going anywhere. In response to claims they stole food from the homeless have built an instant food-kiosk to supply food. When told they could not build a fixed structure, they declared they will add wheels.
- The city of Ottawa is restricting food sales to starve out the protesters, but the FreedomConvoy are feeding themselves. (Did the city not realize the Truckers might be good at the logistics of food deliveries?)
- After threats to bring in the military to remove the truckers, the Military has told Ottawa to find someone else to evict the truckers.
- In chilling news, a white van appears to have deliberately struck a group of protesters. Four are in hospital. The driver has been apprehended.
Fightback against GoFundMe’s theft*
From SmallDeadAnimals and ZeroHedge
..the weak corporate cowards at GoFundMe have succumbed to the pressure from “powerful forces”. Ezra Levant claims it was a request from Trudeau. They now say they will donate it to charities of their choosing. So people who donated may end up unwittingly supporting BlackLivesMatter or Greenpeace. So GoFundMe become GoFundYourEnemies. That, obviously, is outrageous, (and how is it even legal?). But there are ways to fight back.
This was the second largest donation cause for GoFundMe in Canada, and would probably have become the largest had they not halted it. GoFundMe now claims the Trucker convoy is not a peaceful protest but “an occupation” with “unlawful activity”.
If you have donated via GoFundMe, please contact your bank and dispute the charge to your credit card or bank account. That will mean GoFundMe will need to return the money and pay a fee of $15USD.
The word is that donors should not use the gofundme.com refund form.
UPDATE: In a panic GoFundMe now says it will offer refunds to donors “automatically”. Perhaps the thought of thousands of donors demanding chargebacks was a bit frightening, or it might be all the people reporting the group to Attorney Generals and asking for an investigation?
One the money is returned, you can donate via the Christian charity GiveSendGo.com/FreedomConvoy2022. The site asks donors to be patient, as their servers are overwhelmed, and it may take several tries to get past the 505 Gateway error.
In their panic the collectivists destroy all they touch. Will GoFundMe recover when half the political spectrum refuses to use it? Long Live the alternatives.
Reports from inner Ottawa from someone living there make for great reading. A local citizen wonders what makes the protesters tick, and nervously finds out that they are honorable hard workers from every corner of Canada, keeping the streets clean, honking by day but stopping at night. They love Canada and want to keep it free of tyranny for their children.
The real news is anywhere-but-the-legacy-media. Thanks again to SmallDeadAnimals in Canada for the list below. I am but a cog sharing info. These blogs find such live and archived coverage of this historical event in Ottawa.
